Abstract:YBCO/YSZ/Si02/YSZ/YBCO multi-layer structures have been successfully grown on single crystal YSZ substrates. The YBCO superconducting layers (300 nm thick) were deposited using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The YSZ layers (300 nm thick) which are biaxially aligned were deposited using PLD and the ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD). A thick silicon dioxide layer (2-4 microns) was sandwiched between the YSZ layers to meet the low dielectric constant requirement for multi-chip module applications. However, if t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
